New AP National Showbiz Photo Editor

Guinevere Smith has been appointed National Entertainment Photo Editor for The Associated Press. Smith had been with Getty Images since 1999, most recently as North American manager for field editing. Based in Los Angeles, Smith will direct, develop and enhance AP’s entertainment photo coverage in the United States. She succeeds Dan Becker, who was named AP director of entertainment content in January. (See my previous: AP Planning Massive Celebrity Coverage)
